AC/100 W.



When the vehicle is stationary

• The maximum capacity is

restricted to 120 V AC/100 W
when the shift lever is moved to
any positions other than P or N.

• The maximum capacity is 120 V

AC/400 W when the shift lever is

■

Electronic devices that can be

connected to the power outlets

Use electronic devices that can be

connected to the 120 VAC power

outlets. Depending on the devices

being used, the current flow may

become high and the electric power

for a moment may exceed the regu-

lated capacity. If the regulated

capacity is exceeded by the elec-

tronic devices being used, the pro-

tection function of the power outlet

may operate and power outlet may

not be able to be used, but this is

not a malfunction. However,

observe the following precautions:

●

Depending on the devices used, it

may cause interference with TV

and radio broadcasts.

●

Observe the precautions that are

stated in the instruction manuals

for each of the electronic devices.

●

It is assumed that many typical

general electronic devices will not

be used within the vehicle. The

following problems may occur

when using electronic devices

within the vehicle.

• Electronic device malfunction due

to vibrations while driving.

• Electronic device malfunction or

poor operations due to tempera-
ture changes

within the vehicle.

• The installation is unstable and

may not operate normally as the

compartment within the vehicle is

not flat.

: Depending on the weather, sea-

son, usage environment, etc., the
vehicle compartment may
undergo extreme high or low tem-
peratures.

■

Power outlet

The power outlet on the console box

is a device in order to use electronic

devices within the vehicle.

■

Devices which may not operate

correctly

The following 120 VAC devices may

not operate properly:

●

Devices with high initial peak watt-

age

●

Measuring devices that process

precise data

●

Devices that require an extremely

stable power supply

●

Devices that require a constant

power supply from the power out-

let, such as a device with a timer.

■

When the power supply func-

tion cannot be used

If the “AC120V” switch is pressed

but the switch indicator does not illu-

minate, the protection circuit may

have operated.
In this case, perform the appropriate

procedures as follows.

●

Disconnect the plug of each

device from the power outlets,

check that the total power con-

sumption of all devices to be con-

nected to the power outlets,

reconnect the devices and then

press the “AC120V” switch again.

●

Disconnect the plug of each

device from the power outlets,

check that the devices are not

malfunctioning, reconnect the

devices and then press the

“AC120V” switch again.

●

If the temperature inside the vehi-

cle is high, such as after the vehi-

cle has been parked under the

sun, move the vehicle to a shaded

area, use the air conditioning sys-

tem to sufficiently cool the interior,

and then press the “AC120V”

switch again.

If the power outlets cannot be used

even after performing the appropri-

ate procedures above, have the

vehicle inspected by your Toyota

dealer.

●

If any electrical device has mal-

functioned, park the vehicle in a

safe location and turn the

“AC120V” switch off.

●

If the protection function activates

and power is cut, perform the fol-

lowing procedure.

Stop the vehicle in a safe place

and set the parking brake.

Ensure that the shift lever is in P

or N.

Check that the power consumed

by the electrical devices is within

400 W and any device has not

malfunctioned.

Press the “AC120V” switch.

If the inside of the vehicle is hot,
open the windows to lower the tem-
perature and turn the switch back on
once the inside of the vehicle
reaches a normal temperature. If
following the procedure above does
not restore power, have the vehicle
inspected at your Toyota dealer.

WARNING

■

For safe use

Observe the following precau-

tions.
Failure to do so may lead to an

accident, resulting in death or

serious injury.

●

Do not use devices such as the

following when driving:

• Devices which cannot be prop-

erly secured within the vehicle.

• Devices which may distract the

driver and be a hindrance to

safe driving, such as a TV, DVD

player, etc.

• Unsecured devices which gen-

erate heat, such as a toaster,

microwave, electric heater, elec-

tric kettle, coffee maker, etc., as

they may cause burns or a fire

in the case of sudden braking or

an accident.

• Devices which may fall under

the pedals and prevent the

brake pedal from being

depressed.

WARNING

●

Do not use devices which pro-

duce steam while the windows

are closed. Doing so may cause

the windows to fog up, reducing

visibility and making it difficult to

drive safely. Also, the steam

may damage or negatively

affect other devices. If the

device must be used, stop the

vehicle and open the windows

before use.

●

Do not use damaged electronic

devices. The power supply

function may not be able to be

used.

●

Do not disconnect the plug of a

device while your hands are wet

or insert a pin or other object

into the power outlet. Also, if a

liquid or snow is on the power

outlet, dry the outlet before

using it.

●

Do not attempt to modify, disas-

semble or repair a power outlet.

For information on repairs, con-

tact your Toyota dealer.

●

Do not let children touch the

power outlets.

●

Keep the power outlets free of

dust and foreign matter. Also,

regularly clean the power outlet.

●

If the plug of a device fits

loosely in a power outlet, even

though it is fully inserted,

replace the power outlet. For

information on replacement,

contact your Toyota dealer.

■

Using the power outlets while

parked or stopped

Observe the following precau-

tions.
Failure to do so may lead to an

accident, possibly resulting in

death or serious injury.

●

Do not leave the vehicle unat-

tended while the hybrid system

is operating and a device is con-

nected to a power outlet.

●

Do not place luggage or get

near the vicinity of the tailpipe.

●

Make sure that the hood is

closed. Do not put your head or

hands anywhere inside the

engine room, as the cooling

fans may operate suddenly. If

too close, hands and clothing

(especially a tie, scarf, etc.) may

get caught in a fan.

●

Do not stop the vehicle near

objects which burn easily.

●

Install and use appropriately

related devices to make air sup-

ply and exhaust ventilation pos-

sible in places where ventilation

is bad, such as within garages,

and places where the vehicle is

surrounded (places where snow

accumulates).

●

Do not use in places where ven-

tilation is bad, such as within

garages where there are no air

supply and exhaust ventilation

devices, and places where the

vehicle is surrounded (places

where snow accumulates, etc.).

●

Do not use the power outlets if

the vehicle has a vehicle cover

installed.

●

Do not sleep in the vehicle while

using devices such as an elec-

tric heater.

■

Devices to be connected

●

Read the instruction manual

included with the electronic

device being used and observe

the precautions that are stated

regarding the product.

●

Do not use when the power plug

or electronic device are dam-

aged.

NOTICE

Observe the following precau-

tions.
Failure to do so may lead to the

power outlets not operating cor-

rectly or damage to the vehicle or

a connected device.

■

To avoid short circuit or mal-

function

●

Do not set a device which gen-

erates heat near the interior

components or on a seat. Heat

may cause these parts to melt

or burn.

●

Do not use devices which are

sensitive to vibration or heat in

the vehicle.

These devices may malfunction

due to vibration while driving or

heat while the vehicle is parked

in the sun.

●

When not using a power outlet,

make sure to close the cover. If

foreign matter or a liquid enters

the power outlet, it may cause a

malfunction or short circuit.

●

Do not use a multi-point outlet

adapter as doing so may over-

load the power outlet.

●

Immediately stop using if there

is an unusual amount of heat

being felt from the power outlet.

■

When the ambient tempera-

ture is high
